Does any one know if there are any technologies that have higher selectivity for mercaptans removal over H2S? For example, in the natural gas containing both H2S and mercaptans, I prefer to remove mercaptans first, then remove H2S later. But so far, I could not find a technology with no or minimum coabsorption of H2S. Thanks for sharing.

JLMontreal,

 

From "Fundamentals of Petroleum Refining" by M. Fahim, et. al., I send you related information.

Thanks Napo, for sharing;

But I guess Merox need caustic environment which would capture too much H2S; and O2 addition into natural gas could be a safety risk.

@Napo,

Thanks, but we have thought this option, the vendor said not applicable.
